2005 Ford Focus Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2005	4dr Wagon 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Fuel economy at 30 mpg (average) was OK but not spectacular. I blame the 4 speed automatic for that and suspect I might have done better with the 5 speed manual. see full Ford Focus review
2005	4dr Hatch 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	It was only rated at 24mpg by Consumer Reports - and with a smaller, less powerful engine than the 3 (which was rated at 25) see full Ford Focus review
2005	4dr Sedan 151-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Economy is somewhat disappointing for a compact - I average 22 mpg around town. see full Ford Focus review
2005	4dr Hatch 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Poor in town and highway. Extremely disappointed. I would not mind the 20mpg if this was translated into 0-60 times of 6 seconds - but it is not. I have no idea where the fuel goes - it is certainly not converted into power. see full Ford Focus review
2004	2dr Hatch 145-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Lower than expected (23-24mpg avg), but performance makes up for it. see full Ford Focus review
